Epson's wireless HDMI transmitter module has inputs for up to four high-def video sources. The wireless receiver is built into the projector.

Wireless HDMI hookup — it's a beautiful thing

We know there are movie fans out there who would love to try the projector experience, but lack a neat, easy way to run cables from their Blu-ray players and other video sources. Epson's latest room-friendly solution is the PowerLite Home Cinema 5030UBe. It's a high-performance projector that also includes wireless HDMI technology. The wireless receiver is built into the projector chassis, while the transmitter module is placed near your video source. The first time you see a flawless high-definition picture delivered wirelessly — in 2D or 3D — you'll feel like an audio/video Zen master.

Picture quality certified by THX®

The 5030UBe is THX-certified for both 2D and 3D video, which is no small accomplishment. The projector had to pass over 400 laboratory tests to ensure strict adherence to industry performance standards for black level, resolution, contrast, color gamut, and signal processing. When you select either the THX 2D or 3D Cinema Mode, you can count on seeing a top-notch 2D or 3D performance that will equal or surpass what you'd see in a commercial movie theater.

Enough light for bright rooms, enough control for dark rooms

Many high-performance projectors are designed for use in darkened or dimly lit rooms, which is fine if you have a dedicated room, but if you don't it can be a limitation. The 5030UBe has loads of light power, so it's ideal for real-world family rooms, home theaters with really big screens, and situations where others in the room need to keep some lights on. There's even a picture preset called "Living Room" designed for ambient light conditions. The 5030UBe's high brightness also comes in handy for 3D viewing since 3D glasses tend to dim the picture a bit. Three of the projector's picture settings are dedicated to 3D, so you can enjoy a gorgeous 3D picture without changing the settings for watching in 2D. If you are able to make your room really dark, you'll want to use one of the projector's lower light settings, and turn on the "auto iris" feature, which optimizes black level and contrast for each scene.

Flexible placement and hookup options

For spontaneous or "event" viewing, the 5030UBe sets up easily on a table or shelf (the wireless capability really comes in handy). Or you can get a bracket and ceiling-mount it. Horizontal and vertical "lens shift" allow you to position the projector off-center and still get a perfectly true image.

The wireless transmitter module has four HDMI inputs to accommodate your Blu-ray player, cable or satellite TV box, video game console, and more. Plus, an HDMI passthrough allows it to pass audio and video to an A/V receiver. There's also an optical digital output so you can enjoy multichannel audio even with A/V receivers that lack HDMI.

Product Highlights:

wireless HDMI connectivity provides full 1080p picture quality for both 2D and 3D without running a cable between your video source and the projector

wireless receiver is built into projector; wireless transmitter module connects to video source via HDMI (wireless range is 32 feet; the signal is infrared and the projector and transmitter must be in the same room)

widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio (can also display 4:3 material)

3LCD, 3-chip technology (1920 x 1080 pixels each)

THX® certified for 2D and 3D to guarantee an accurate picture

3D projector (includes 2 pairs of Epson RF active 3D glasses)

Split Screen mode simultaneously projects two video sources side by side (not available when using two HDMI sources, or with 3D viewing)

Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 5030UBe

excellent picture quality. even in a room with substantial ambient light. the 3D is a treat I had not initially thought worth the time and money, but it is great and my 5 year old granddaughter loves it!

Awesome product for Home theater & good support from Crutchfield

I am so much impressed with this product. I setup a home theater and brought these product from Crutchfield Epson 5030ube projector, Bose cinemate 520, Samsung 3d blueray player bd-j7500. I am so much happy with purchases from Crutchfield. Their customer service is execellent and you can call them weekdays(up to midnight) and on weekends. They had hassle free 60 days return policy. They deliver products fast and well packed. In total much better service compared to other online retailers. I will never go to any other merchandise if product is available at Crutchfield.

Coming to Epson 5030ube, this is my first projector and I can't take away my eyes from picture quality it is delivering. I am staying in a rented house and projecting picture onto a plain wall (110" diagonal) in living room with ambient light and couldn't expect more. My initial setup of this projector took me 5-10 minutes. Also thanks to wireless transmitter as I don't have to run any wires from walls. My installation cost was $0. Apart from little lag on changing source I had no problems with transmitter. I haven't calibrate projector setting much (expect frame interpolation). Loved the picture quality from out of box settings. Most of my color code will be Thx or living room.I haven't still tried 3D projection.

I would definitely 100% recommend to go for this product and would recommend to go with Crutchfield to have peacefully and satisfied purchase of your new gear!

Whisper Quiet, Awesome Performance

I am not easily impressed and, while I have only owned the product for about a week, I am blown away by its performance. The wireless transmission of the signal works flawlessly and saved me a ton of money that I would have had to spend routing cable through my walkout basement ceiling. Due to the presence of a ceiling fan, I have the projector sitting on a surface between two couches at about head level. My right ear is about a foot from the unit and I have to really concentrate when the room is quiet, to hear the fan under normal projection conditions. If I ever had the need to boost the brightness of the image, which I can't imagine I ever would, the fan then runs faster and is more audible. The picture is brilliant, crisp, and natural as to color. I can not detect any discernible loss of brightness at the edges or corners. The value is unmistakable. The projector is 3D capable. I am projecting a 120" diagonal image that is just as bright and crisp as any of my flat panel HD TVs for the cost of a decent 65" flat panel HD TV with 3D capability. I essentially have the ability to enjoy a movie theater quality experience in the comfort of my own home. Unless the 5030 UBe's performance suddenly deteriorates, I expect to be proud to invite guests over for "movie night" well into the foreseeable future, and watch them gaze open-mouthed at the amazing images this product produces.

Pros:Quiet; Bright; Crisp; Natural color right out of the box; Great Value; Wireless transmission of video signal to the projector; Overall jaw-dropping performance.

Cons:Too bad the 5030 UBe is not offered in either a dark grey or other more subdued color for those of us who cannot ceiling mount the unit.

Excellent product and Crutchfield is just superb!!

I was always buying product from a local retailer or an electronics dealer. This is the first time I experienced with Crutchfield and they a just simply superb in their customer service. I loved their followup and quick communication and care for customer safety. Now my comments on this product is 5 star. Initially I bought SONY HW40ES and returned that item to SONY since I was not satisfy with their customer service mainly and then price compare to the product. Then I bought EPSON 5030UBE from Crutchfield. This product is just blown out our expectation. Me and my wife both feels that we were lucky that we returned SONY and bought this product from Crutchfield. Wireless HDMI works for me very well and picture quality is neat. No complains. I would definitely recommend this product buying from Crutchfield so you can get good product with good customer service.

Fantastic Quality, So-So Wireless

We've been wowed by the quality of this projector. The picture quality is fantastic and the ability to adjust the color mode depending on living room light is great. Set up was easy. We just pull out the projector, plug in and throw up on our wall. Be prepared, this unit is huge. As others have mentioned, the wireless transmitter is spotty. We have our projector set up 6 feet with a direct line of site from the wireless transmitter. Unfortunately, we have regular issues connecting wirelessly when first turning the system. In fact, so far, I would guess we have to reboot 50% of the time because the wireless does not connect when turning the system on. However, once connected wirelessly, it works great. We decided to keep this product and deal with the temperamental wireless.

Pros:Fantastic picture quality. Easy set-up.

Cons:Poor wireless connection when initially turning on the projector.

great picture- black out gets annoying

I love the picture quality of the unit. The major flaw is for the wireless HDMI to work properly, their has to be a direct line of site from the HDMI to the projector. If someone (or the dog) cuts the signal, you have to put up with a black screen (10-20 secs) unit unit reconnects. I am trying to think of a way to set up HDMI so line of site is always in tact. I called Crutchfield and Epson tech support to see if there was a work around (there isn't). It would be helpful if they offered an infrared cord that could attach to HDMI and be placed in an area where signal couldn't get blocked. I am considering returning the unit and buying 3030- I'll purchase 30 foot HDMI cables and direct wire the projector to the input sources. I would rate it 5 stars if the signal didn't get cut out.

Great Projector...but lag time on wireless Sync

Written By Tom N., Los Alamitos, Ca on Saturday, April 26, 2014

This projector is easy to set up and provides excellent picture quality on a 109" screen. My wife is also able to turn low light on in the room if she chooses to read without seriously affecting picture quality. Works great with video games and sporting events. The only complaint I have about the unit is the intermittent syncing with the wireless hdmi. Which,btw, is part of the reason I chose this unit. Once a show or movie is playing the syncing problem does not occur. However, when moving from one channel to the next or when moving from guide to the program being watched there is a sync delay. During this delay, the screen will go black and inform you that the sync is in progress. Not certain if this is common or just with me. Not a big deal, but it is a downfall and becomes somewhat annoying at times. I would rate it a 5 if not for this problem. I would recommend this product to anyone serious about a quality home theater if you do not do a lot of channel surfing.

Great product

A severe electrical storm finished off my older Epson projector purchased only two years ago. The damage was not through the power line but by voltage induced be EMP into the long hdmi cable. HDMI ports are particularly susceptible to this type of damage. Therefore I was happily to replace it with the wireless model. Turns out that it works fine wirelessly and provides a picture that is much brighter and better contrast than the older one. The big surprise is that it uses the same lamp (cool since I had a spare). Color accuracy seems spot on with amazing blacks even in moderate ambient light.

Features

C²Fine 3LCD, 3-chip Technology: The Home Cinema 5030UBe
features C²Fine 3LCD, 3-chip technology to give you rich, vibrant images for
enjoying spectacular movies, games, and sporting events in your home, or to
deliver sizzling business presentations at the office. This technology requires
25% less electricity per lumen of brightness when compared to 1-chip DLP
projectors. The projector's 1080Perfect video processing gives you more
film-like images, free of noise or artifacts.

Projection Lamp: The projector uses an energy-efficient E-TORL
230-watt Ultra High Efficiency (UHE) lamp with a life span of approximately 4000
hours in the Normal Mode. In the ECO mode, the life span is increased to
approximately 5000 hours. The lamp (Part # V13H010L69) and air filter (Part #
V13H134A39) are the only user-serviceable parts.

Fan Cooled: The projection lamp is kept cool by a fan. The
fan noise level is 32dB in Normal mode and 22dB in ECO mode. If the projector is
to be used at an altitude above 4921 feet (1500 meters), the High Altitude Mode
should be turned on so the fan can properly cool the projector at the high
altitude air pressure.

Fujinon Lens: The Home Cinema 5030UBe features an F2.0-3.17
Fujinon lens with a focal length of 22.5mm to 42.7mm. It has a manual focus and
a manual zoom ratio of 1.0 to 2.1. If the projected image is not centered in
front of the screen, you can correct the position of the image using the
vertical and horizontal lens shift dials on the top of the projector. The
vertical position can be adjusted by up to 96% of the height of the screen,
while the horizontal position can be adjusted by up to 47% of the width of the
screen. The vertical keystone buttons, located on the side of the projector, can
correct the shape of the image, if it is not rectangular. The unit does not have
a horizontal keystone adjustment.

Light Output: In the normal mode, the PowerLite Home Cinema
5030UBe outputs 2400 lumens of white light and 2400 lumens of color light for
bright, balanced colorful images. The white light output is measured using ISO
21118, a more rigid standard than the ANSI lumens rating used by many
competitors. The projector is capable of a dynamic contrast ratio up to
600,000:1.

1080P Native Resolution: The PowerLite Home Cinema 5030UBe
has a native resolution of 1080p (1920 x 1080; 16:9 aspect ratio). The total
number of pixels is 2,073,600 dots (1920 x 1080) x 3. You can resize the picture
by changing the aspect ratio to 4:3 or 16:10.

Compatible Video Formats: The projector supports analog
video in NTSC, PAL, and SECAM formats, and it automatically adjusts to the
incoming signal. It can receive these formats as composite or component video.
The projector also supports digital video (SDTV, HDTV) and various monitor
display formats. Digital video is accepted by the HDMI and Component video
ports. The PC port accepts analog RGB computer monitor signals.

Multiple Sources: The PowerLite Home Cinema 5030UBe has
inputs for multiple sources to give you lots of choices. For connecting to your
video equipment, the unit features two HDMI (Ver.1.4) inputs, a component video
input, and a composite video input. You can also connect your computer to the
projector via the VGA input (D-Sub 15-pin). The unit is compatible with both PCs
and Macs. Two cable clips are included to help secure the HDMI cables to the
projector.

WirelessHD Transmmitter: The Home Cinema 5030UBe also allows you to
wirelessly stream HD content from video devices to the projector. The supplied WirelessHD transmitter operates in the 60 GHz band, and has
five HDMI inputs for
connecting your Satellite/Cable Box, Blu-ray/DVD player, Game Console, and other
HDMI-compatible sources. You can connect an MHL-compatible smartphone or tablet
to the HDMI 5/MHL (IN) port on the WirelessHD Transmitter. The wireless transmitter should be placed within 32' of
the projector. The transmitter is also equipped with an HDMI output and optical
digital output to connect your WirelessHD connected sources to your TV (the
WirelessHD transmitter only outputs 2ch audio). In addition, there is a
side-panel USB (type-A) port which can be used to charge the included 3D
glasses. The transmitter is 6.875" (w) x
2.3125 " (h) x 6.25" (d), and weighs 1.3 lbs.

Note: If you're using an A/V receiver, the preferred hookup
is to connect your AV sources to your home theater receiver first, then go
out from the receiver to the WirelessHD transmitter, and then to your TV.
This configuration allows you to retain multichannel playback, since the
WirelessHD transmitter downconverts multichannel audio to 2-channel.

Picture Quality Settings: If the image looks fuzzy, or if it
contains noise or flickering, you can use these settings to correct it.

Progressive: Converts interlaced to progressive
signals. Leave the setting on Film/Auto for viewing movies on a player that
produces interlaced output. Select Video for watching videos captured with a
video camera. Set to Off when viewing images with a large amount of
movement. This setting can be used only when viewing a composite video
signal, or 480i or 576i, or 1080i signals input through the Component or
HDMI.

Motion Detection: This setting specifies how signals
are converted to progressive signals. Select a lowersetting for slow-moving
or still images (S) or select a higher number for video images (M). This
setting can be used only when viewing a composite video signal, or 480i or
576i, or 1080i signals input through the Component or HDMI.

Noise Reduction: This setting reduces flickering of
analog images. You can select from 3 levels of noise reduction. This is not
be available with a signal input through the PC port.

Frame Interpolation: This setting compares the current
and previous frames, then creates a frame between them to reduce fuzziness
and produce clearer moving images. You can select from 3 levels of frame
interpolation.

Super Resolution: This setting sharpens blurred images,
enhancing the apparent detail of the image. You can select from 3 levels of
enhancement. Note that intentionally blurred parts of the image, such as
out-of-focus backgrounds, may become sharper. This feature is not available
when projecting 3D.

Color Modes: The PowerLite Home Cinema 5030UBe offers six
color modes to optimize viewing for different environments and image content.
The Color Mode adjusts the brightness, contrast, and color for the best possible
picture. A different color mode can be selected for each input source. You can
select from the following choices:

Cinema: for viewing movies in a dimly lit room (2D or
3D)

Dynamic: for projecting the brightest picture available
(2D or 3D)

THX: for projecting THX level image in a dark room (2D or 3D)

Living Room: for watching television programs during
the day (2D only)

Color Settings: If the image colors don't look correct, you
can adjust them using these settings. Use the first three settings described
below to make the most visible changes. If you only need to make slight
adjustments, you can fine-tune the picture with the remaining settings. Most
color settings are stored separately for each image source and color mode.

Sharpness: Use this function to make lines and edges
appear more distinct in the image. This setting is stored separately for
each image source and color mode setting.

Color Saturation: Adjusts the color intensity of the
image. Cannot be used with PC input.

Tint: Shifts the color balance between magenta and green. Cannot
be used with PC input.

Color Temperature: Shifts the color balance between red
and blue, making the image appear warmer or cooler.

Skin Tone: Makes fine adjustments to the tint and
controls the amount of red or green in the image. Also useful for correcting
black-and-white images, if they look tinted.

RGB: Use the RGB settings to fine-tune the color of the
image. You can adjust the offset and gain for each signal color (red, green,
and blue). Use Offset to adjust darker shades and Gain for the lightest
shades

RGBCMY: Use the RGBCMY settings to adjust the hue,
saturation, and brightness of the six color components (red, green, blue,
cyan, magenta, yellow).

Gama: You can select from five gamma settings (2.0 to
2.4) or customize your own setting from your image or a displayed graph.
Lower values will increase the contrast of dark areas, but tend to blur the
bright areas. Higher values will darken the light areas.

Auto Iris: The Auto Iris system constantly controls the
light output based on the gamma and black/white levels of the projected content
to give you perfectly adjusted images and deepest blacks. Using the remote, you
can select either Normal or High Speed to indicate how quickly you would like
the projector to respond to changes in the brightness of the image.

Split Screen Mode: The Home Cinema 5030UBe's Split Screen
mode allows you to simultaneously project two images from different image
sources next to each other. The side-by-side images can be equal size or one
larger than the other. You can also choose which audio source you want to hear
between the displayed images. The Split Screen mode is not available in 3D mode.

Adjustable Image Size + Lens Projection Distance: The
PowerLite Home Cinema 5030UBe projector can produce an image that is adjustable
between 30" and 300" (measured diagonally). The projector's adjustable lens
provides a wide range of placement possibilities for a given screen size. The
projection distance (distance from lens to screen) range is 2.85' to 47.57'. The
distance for several screen sizes at 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratios are given below:

Mounting Options: The PowerLite Home Cinema 5030UBe can be
placed on a tabletop or inverted and mounted on the ceiling. It can be used for
front or rear projection. For tabletop use, you can adjust the image position by
raising or lowering the front feet. For ceiling mounting, you will need an
optional projector ceiling mount. Four 4mm threaded screw holes are provided on
the bottom for a ceiling mount. A commercially-available Kensington security
lock can be attached to the unit to prevent theft when installed in a public
location.

Remote Control: In addition to the control panel, the
projector can be controlled by the supplied wireless remote control, which has a
range of approximately 32 feet. The projector has infrared receivers on the
front and rear to give you control from most anywhere in the room. An RS-232C
port is included for connecting the projector to a 3rd party A/V controller or
automation system.

HDMI Link: When you connect HDMI CEC-compatible devices,
such as a receiver or DVD player, to the projector via HDMI cables, you can
control them using the HDMI-Link control buttons on the projector's remote
control. You can register the devices you want to operate in the HDMI Link
section of the projector's menu.

Trigger Output: The projector has a 3.5mm Trigger Output
port which delivers a 12-volt signal (max 200 mA) to lower your motorized
projector screen while the projector is powered on.

Sleep Mode: The projector turns off automatically when no
video signal is received for a preset amount of time. You can set the sleep mode
to 5, 10, or 30 minutes.

Warranty and Extra Care Home Service: The projector is
covered by a 2-year parts and labor warranty, while the lamp is covered for 90
days. Included with the warranty, Epson offers Extra Care Home Service. A
replacement unit (in most cases, a refurbished unit) will be shipped to you
immediately. (A credit card is required for security deposit.) If it's important
that you receive your original projector back, you should use the basic carry-in
service instead of Home Service.
